The county provides the fuel for the small aircrafts that begin patrolling the area the weekend before Memorial Day and con tinue every weekend until the weekend after Labor Day. Two separate planes cover routes from as far north as the Manasquan Inlet to the southern end of the county at Little Egg Inlet.

Drivers of off-road vehicles who take delight in the surround ing terrain also take risks in visiting the prohibited area.

the area,” shared Ocean County Sheriff Michael Mastronardy. “The sunset patrols report back concerning activities in wooded areas and communicate with us when there are issues with boats and off-road vehicles in prohibited areas.”
The take-off from the Ocean County Airport was amazingly smoother than any larger aircraft. Almost immediately, one could count the number of homes in surrounding areas with swimming pools in their backyards.

Next, Hermack listed flight preparation instructions, which included informing the reporter that the best place to sit in the back of the plane was facing the rear. Hermack settled in the cockpit with Kurt Stofko, along for the flight to take aerial shots of the view below. The three strapped into their seats and put on headsets to communicate with one another.
Hermack’s personal aircraft is a Bonan za, a single-engine airplane. According to Hermack, it’s a little bit bigger than most single-engine airplanes like Cessnas and Cherokees because it has six seats. The fact that the Bonanza has retractable landing gear makes it go a bit faster than most of the other small planes.

“Fromplace.what I can gather, the town ship was trying to resist the impact of the Ocean County Mall on the down town business district,” said Roberts. “They acquired 12 properties from private property owners by using eminent domain along Water Street between Robbins Parkway.”

According to Roberts, the surround ing area dates back to the 1960s when the township put an Urban Renewal Plan in
The front of the banquet facility fac es Robbins Parkway and would have a 12,000 square feet unconditioned reception area with a covered bar. A rooftop garden, multiple terraces and additional restaurant space and cocktail areas are all part of the con ceptual plans.
Roberts classified the boatworks property as marginal for many years and said since Superstorm Storm San dy, conditions have worsened. Accord ing to Roberts, the township council determined in 2018 that the property was a blighting influence and desig nated it as an area of redevelopment with a parking lot.
Another reason the location qualified as an area in need of redevelopment was that the owners never paid the
state for riparian rights for the boats on the property. Rents have piled up and whomever acquires the property will have to worry about renovating the boats and paying the back money.
“I feel this piece of property is the crown jewel of the redevelopment lo cation,” Lotano continued. “The other proposed site that Capodagli is start ing (residential) is an empty piece of property that has never been utilized and is a bus terminal.”
Faced with penalties for failing to maintain the property, the owners put it up for sale. That’s when the redevel oper’s commercial realtor contacted Roberts.

Meanwhile, the boatworks property comes with its share of issues. The Quality of Life Task Force placed the lot on its vacant property inventory.
Township Council Vice President Matt Lotano said that he sits on the Land Use Committee and shared his opinions concerning the conceptual rendering.
Lotano said that the township has been working on a redevelopment plan for approximately 25 years and feels that the plan for a non-residential com mercial component could mean things are coming to fruition.
“The building’s been basically abandoned and is in extremely poor condition and basically unsafe,” said Roberts. “It probably needs to come down, but it’s been fenced off and is supposed to be secured. The only thing that goes on there is that one of the radio stations parks their vans there.”

Larry’s Home
The facility will be named after Hulse’s childhood friend Larry Rober tiello. He served two tours in Kuwait and Baghdad during Operation Iraqi Freedom. He served from October of 2001 to July of 2004, reaching the rank of Specialist in the Army and receiving four medals. He worked as a plumber in his civilian life.
Homeless
A few years ago, Just Believe Inc. started running an overnight shelter for extremely cold nights. Volunteers and staff who worked with the home less population have said that they need consistency. Having one place where they can get services and refer rals makes all the difference.
They will be taught life skills, and they will be helped in finding employ ment. Some might have volunteer or employment opportunities at the Just Believe Boutique. Hulse said all of them will be required to find employ ment within 60 days of their first day with them.
“While he was in Kuwait and Bagh dad, Larry would call me once or twice a week on a satellite phone to talk about home,” Hulse said. “He was
“Larry is survived by his 10-yearold son. He received treatment for his addiction from the (Veterans Ad ministration) but struggled with the aftercare. If he had access to a facility such as our new transitional home, he may have lived to see his son grow up. That is why Larry was the inspiration for Just Believe Inc. building Larry’s Home to help veterans and at-risk individuals in honor of him and his service,” he said.
Ocean County is currently the only county in New Jersey without an official shelter, leaving homeless to be collected by religious and other welfare groups. At one point, Atlantic City sued Ocean County because they were taking care of Ocean’s homeless.
As a result, veterans will be getting priority placement in Larry’s Home.
Samantha Hanson, a project manager for Garden State Equality, an LGBTQ+ advocacy group, lives in Silverton. She explained that an inclusive curriculum results in a better environment for all students and that there has been a lot of misrepresentation in social media about the curriculum.
At that meeting, Board member Kathleen Eagan said “Our curriculum is strong and it is more than just the standards for health and physical education that the state has pushed at us.”

When the topic came up, Superin tendent Michael Citta said during this meeting “We have a lot of people with a lot of different needs, and we can han dle changes. Not every kid learns the same” and lessons aren’t appropriate for every child. It is possible to provide alternative assignments if parents were uncomfortable.“Weallloveour kids. Sometimes, that support is in open dialogue and trust in spite of what the national rhetoric is. We refuse to let it become political. We don’t indoctrinate, we educate,” he said. It’s all backed up with communication and being a good role model.
It was during this meeting that the board voted unanimously to approve the curriculum.
Curriculum officials opened by giving a brief overview of the changes.
When it comes to what students need to know before graduating, those standards haven’t really changed from the way it’s been taught for the last few years.

More than a dozen districts through out the state have refused to implement the changes, resulting in threats of less state aid and suspension of professional licenses.

The public had a chance to talk about these changes at a hearing on August 15. No actions were scheduled for the board to take, this was just a time to listen. There were 1,200 people who watched this meeting and there were a number of comments.
Adrienne Gold, Director of Secondary Curriculum, said that sexual acts are not defined, but body parts are named as a way for infections to enter your body.
Some parents said these changes are for the better – or that they are really not that different than what they had in school.
Curriculum
introducing gay fictional characters or information about real LGBTQ+ people in history to children at a young age would turn children gay. Parents said these are conversations that belonged in the home.
Board member Lisa Contessa said that students are sent home packets about what they learn, and there are also back to school nights. Parents should look into what their children are learn ing and ask any questions they have.
The state standards have often been referred to as a guideline because each district has the control to make these changes in their own way.
Elementary students will learn about gender roles and stereotypes, but in an age-appropriate way, she said. Children will talk about the things they like to do and wear, for example. The goal is to let students feel welcome and included regardless of their identity.
“Kindness and acceptance is something we should all be for,” she said.
“Curriculum doesn’t educate; teachers do,” Board member Anna Polozzo said.
“When a curricular document is up for revision, it is presented at the Curriculum Committee meeting of the whole,” a school spokesman said. “Each August we re-ap prove all K-12 curricular documents as the summer is an ideal time for revisions, especially for mandates that are up for implementation in September. If an item is drawn out in discussion, as the K-12 Comprehensive Health & PE curriculum was, it is discussed at length (and, in rare instances, presented in a public forum for feedback) and then gets approved at the next board meeting as part of the commit tee workshop meeting agendas. If a board member (or multiple) chooses to vote ‘No’ on an individual curriculum, it would be pulled out and not approved as part of the general documents approval. This was not the case in Toms River.”
Some parents spoke out against the curriculum changes, and urged the board and the officials to stand up to the state.
Rachel Cicala, Director of Elementa ry Curriculum, noted that parents and guardians are the primary educators. If there are any lessons they don’t want their kids to hear, the child will be moved to another classroom for alternate lessons.
The first recent meeting where it came up was during a committee meeting on August 10. During committee meetings, the board and officials give reports on topics like “Curriculum” or “Buildings and Grounds.” There were fewer than 300 people who watched this meeting on YouTube, and there were zero comments.
The state’s guidelines can be found here: NJSLS-CHPE.pdfnj.gov/education/cccs/2020/2020%20
At the next regular Board of Education meeting, which was August 17, residents Joseph and Lyzzette Steffer said that the people coming from Garden State Equal ity or from other towns were fake and insulting to them.
She listed statistics about how many LGBT individuals reported that they had made suicide plans back when they were in school because of their treatment.

What they learn in school starting this year will help prepare them to address this challenging issue now and in the future. We commend First Lady Tammy Mur phy for her relentless advocacy on this issue and applaud the Murphy Administration for seeing this through to implementation.”
“New Jersey will be on the forefront of the climate movement, and these new standards will give our children the tools necessary to combat the effects of climate change.

“New Jersey will continue to be a national leader in preparing students to address issues related to climate change in the next decade,” said Dr. Angelica Allen-McMillan, Acting Commissioner of Education. “Our standards provide students with the tools to learn how climate change impacts our society, but how to also work collaboratively with peers and com munities to address the issue of climate change.”

TRENTON – Acting Attorney General Matthew J. Platkin made a wealth of infor mation about police agencies’ internal affairs investigations available online, in a searchable dashboard capable of filtering data by law enforcement agency, the types of allegations involved, and what, if any, disciplinary action was taken. It is believed to be the most com prehensive compilation of statewide internal affairs information to be made accessible to the public by any state in the U.S.
TRENTON – In June of 2020 First Lady Tammy Murphy announced that the New Jersey State Board of Education adopted her initiative to make New Jersey the first state in the nation to incorporate climate change education across its K-12 academic standards. And now, as thousands of New Jersey students enter a new school year, the incorporation of climate change education for K-12 schools begins. This first of its kind curriculum will prepare and propel New Jersey students to the top of the ranks for the thousands of green economy jobs that will be made available in the future.

“A key part of public education is to equip students with the knowledge and skills needed to be effective participants in shaping the future. The new school year marks a sea change in how we address climate change and sets New Jersey as a national example in efforts to prevent and adapt to climate change,” said Randall Solomon, Director, Sustainable Jersey.
central“Fosteringlocation.strong relationships between law enforcement and communities is essential to public safety. Transparency, fairness, and mu tual respect are foundational to building that es sential trust,” said Governor Phil Murphy. “Our state’s new dashboard testifies to the profound understanding of our law enforcement officers that such trust is forged by meaningful actions that reflect the crucial importance of this pro fession. Every effort to improve accountability among our esteemed law enforcement officers today will help better protect our community members tomorrow.”

The Of fice of Justice Data will update the statistics on an annual basis as new information is submitted by police agencies around the state.

Eicher said the Attorney General’s Office is committed to reviewing the data to identify any patterns that might raise concerns warranting further investigation.
“We are always looking at this data as a way to improve internal affairs policies, procedures and oversight,” the director said.
“New Jersey’s policing community remains the most effective in the United States. A searchable dashboard will further demonstrate how we pro tect and serve the public each day. We applaud Acting Attorney General Matthew Platkin for his latest program to create more accountability, while helping residents better understand how the internal affairs system works and why it is such an important tool in improving policies and procedures.”

“We take another step toward greater trans parency and accountability in law enforcement through the release of our Internal Affairs Dashboard,” said Acting Attorney General Platkin. “The Office of Justice Data aggregated a tremendous amount of information to give New Jerseyans insight into internal affairs cases that no other state provides.

Climate change standards have also been added to the appendices of the mathematics and English language arts guidelines, which are up for review this year.

Colors make a huge difference in how we see the world, but not everyone sees colors the same and some don’t see them at all. Seeing colors depends on the function of the three cones that send color information from our eyes to our brains. When none of the cones are working properly, the result is total color blindness. It is very rare, and to those who live with it, the world is not so much black and white, but a variety of different shades of gray. When one of the cones is not working properly, it either causes blue-yellow color blindness, which is extremely rare, or red-green, which is the most common form of color blindness.
Tom Eicher, Executive Director of the OPIA, said, “Not many agencies or states release this information. Bringing this data to light will enable the public to look with a broader lens to see if the internal affairs system is working the way it should be.”

Hermack and Stofko took turns identifying various sights as they headed back to base. They spoke of sandbars growing in size, and sole buildings on at least two islands throughout the region.
The reporter prepared for landing and almost wished the flight had not come to an end. The glimpse of familiar sites from a higher vantage point proved more than a little exciting. Even better was meeting a select group of volunteers willing to give their time and expertise to add to the com munity’s safety.

OCEAN COUNTY – County com munities are receiving a record rate of recycling revenue according to members of the Ocean County Board of Commis sioners who noted the largest revenue sharing grants since the program’s 1995 inception.
She said, “every ounce of material that is recycled stays out of our landfill. Not only are we protecting the environment, but we are making money instead of spending money on landfill fees.”
Kelly added that currently, “we have turned the corner we are once again pleased to share the revenue with our towns, who are essential to the success of our recycling efforts.”
Total recycling revenue was $1,933,664 for the first six months of 2022. Recycla ble materials were sold by the county for an average price of $29.47 per ton. Onehalf of that revenue will be returned to
The largest awards are to Lakewood: 6,555 tons $193,212; Toms River: 4,836 tons $142,555; Brick: 3,616 tons $106,582; Stafford: $2,194 tons $64,675 and Berke ley: 2,137 tons $62,999.

The final FDA ruling has occurred and a plethora of OTCs will be hitting the market in the near future. Truthfully, these products have existed for many years without any significant regulation. This is a new class of hearing instruments that are more affordable preprogrammed hearing aids designed for milder hearing losses. The “goal” is to make hearing aids more available to the public which in turn will eventually force the 6-major manufacturer’s (Starkey, Oticon, Phonak, Widex, Signia, Resound) of hearing aids to lower their pricing. NEWS FLASH! It is very unlikely that the top 6 hearing aids manufacturer’s will lower their pricing because many of them will also be selling OTCs directly to the public.
The major questions you should be asking yourself is “how does this OTC hearing aid know the degree of hearing loss I have? It doesn’t! These devices are designed for mild to moderate hearing losses but how does it take into account

the “slope” of your hearing loss? It doesn’t! Unless you take the time to have your hearing evaluated by a licensed professional, you don’t even know the degree of hearing loss you have.

3. Supplement your diet - Eating right will help with gut integrity, but sometimes it’s not enough. Therefore, consider nutrients that are known to reduce Th17 overactivity. These include chelated zinc, vitamin D, and folate (only the methylated form, not folic acid).

If your own body is killing itself, you don’t stand a chance. You can modify the self-driven attack with a choice made at every meal. That choice is to avoid foods and beverages that contain sugar or other sweeteners which often produce the same glycemic high in the body.
If you are not responding to your dietary changes within a few months, or you experience anything untoward, please contact your doctor. Remember, your goal is to reduce your Th17. If you find this topic interesting, please sign up for my free newsletter, and I’ll email you a longer, more detailed version.

2. Improve your lifestyle - Don’t eat too late at night and exercise to your level. Try to avoid stress and get proper sleep. We know that melatonin deficiency is associat ed with increased autoimmunity, so getting proper rest could make life easier. If you need help with sleep apnea, see a specialist.
Your pain levels are at stake. If you have MS, your nerves are at stake, if you have psoriasis, you can help yourself right now. Here’s the plan:
We’re seeing more research lately about how spikes in sugar cause your body to attack itself with more vigor. Autoimmune disorders are exacerbated by eating a lot of foods and beverages that are high in sugar. The same goes for both refined and com plex carbohydrates. That statement will fly in the face of what many nutritionists believe, but I’m writing an opinion column, and that’s my opinion. I’d keep the refined ones out of your diet, and the complex ones to a minimum!
I’ll tie in a nice neat bow right now: Sugar increases T Helper-17 (Th17) cells, which then leads to suppressed immunity and more self-driven autoimmune attacks. Sugar ultimately leads to increased rates of obesity, and thus more health problems including heart disease, stroke, Type 2 diabetes, hypertension, asthma, low back pain and arthritis.
1. Change your diet - Completely elimi nate all sugary foods, all candy, and sweets, and all refined carbohydrates like bagels and white rice. I would greatly minimize complex carbohydrates as well. Things in this category include brown rice, beans, starchy vegetables like peas and wholegrain bread.
How Sugar Worsens Autoimmune Diseases And 3 Easy Solutions
In a recent study, it was once again shown that high glucose intake (ie lots of sweets) spawns a lot of free radical damage and thus, Th17 overactivity. So you can now develop your own personal strategy to lower Th17, and thus, improve your auto immune condition. Do these 3 important things and start now, you don’t have to wait.

Once an Executor of an Estate is appointed and the Will is challenged, the Executor may use Estate assets to defend the challenge as long as the contesting party challenges the Will’s validity, interpretation, distribution, or a specific clause. The estate assets may be used to hire an attorney to defend the challenge of the Will. Legal fees incurred in defending the challenged Will, its contents, clauses, or distribution are not be the per sonal responsibility of the Executor. Instead, under such circumstances, the legal fees are payable from the Estate. However, when an Executor has to defend claims against non-probate assets, then the circumstances change and certain limitations apply.

The death of a loved one is a tragic event. Unfortunately, following in the wake of a loved one’s passing, disputes often arise as to the decedents Last Will and Testament. If such a dispute arises, it is important to understand how legal fees could impact the assets of the Estate.

If a party to a Will challenges the transfer of a non-probate asset, an Executor may be forbidden from utilizing Estate assets to defend against such a claim. When a transfer of non-probate assets benefits the Executor of the Estate to the exclusion of other beneficiaries, then the Executor will not be allowed to use the Estates assets to pay legal fees in defense of such a dispute. Should an Executor use the assets of the Estate to make such payments, then these assets may be payable back to the Estate by theTheExecutor.lawfirm of R.C.

Ok so here’s a subject that seems to ruffle one’s feathers – assuming humans ‘had’ feathers. Let me start by agreeing that the Canada goose does create a lot of waste. Imagine a diet of mostly plant matter, grasses, some seeds and berries, even some insects on occasion. A goose can consume up to about 4 pounds of grass a day. That’s right, a day! With that kind of diet, one would have to realize what goes into the body must leave from the body. While it is not recommended to hand-feed, people will sometimes provide grains and other foods. They prefer lawn grass found in open urban areas. Open areas provide them the ability to not only spot predators, but also open space allows them easier access for flying. Where there is water, expect waterfowl. Due to the 4-6 - foot wingspan and size of the Canada goose, they typically will vocalize to their group that it’s time for take-off. That take-off means a running start of several feet.
The Toms River Times welcomes your special announcements! Engagements, Weddings, Births, Birthday Wishes, etc. Please call 732-657-7344 for more details!

who provide for and feed their young, waterfowl young become quickly adept at learning the skills to survive. Both parents, especially the male, will vigorously defend the goslings until approximately 10 weeks of age when they can fly. Young geese will stay with their family group for about one year. The Canada goose mates for life. Should they lose a mate, they typically find another within the same breeding season. So, getting back to goose waste, contrary to what you may think, there is some good news about their droppings. They contain large amounts of carbon, nitro gen, and phosphorous when dried. This is good quality fertilizer for your vegetable garden(s). Maybe think about collecting that waste and incorporating it into your garden. Understanding a bit more about the Canada goose, the next time you en counter them visiting your neighborhood, remember, they’re just like us, trying their best to survive.
